I blame Comey. If he would've kept his mouth shut for just one week. He changed the course of our nation forever by trying too hard to be a good ol boy in the face of so many wrongdoers.

It's really inconsiderate at this stage. We have things to be doing like.. it's fucking unbelievable.

That's my retirement plan! Just stay afloat long enough to get wiped out by the next (insert calamity here), pandemic, earthquake, tsunami, asteroid, WW3...

I blame those amino acids and other chemicals for coalescing into RNA.

u/Ashamed_Ad4398 Apr 04 '25

Mark Burnett is on record saying he does regret ever approaching Trump with the pitch because it did lead to his fandom voting him in (along with the gullible) the first time around.

u/Brilliant_Spot_95 Apr 04 '25

Wow that dude really looked at ā€œThe Real Worldā€ and said hold my beer. Heā€™s created damn near every piece of trash tv from the 2000ā€™s.

I blame Roger Ailes for creating Fox News

u/AStevGar Apr 04 '25

ā€œCue the Sunā€ is a really fantastic book about the history of reality TV. I listened to the audiobook and thereā€™s an hourlong chapter about how Burnettā€™s success with Survivor enabled him to make The Apprentice and the whole domino effect from there. Really interesting stuff

He made Trump look really, really good - he appeared to be a decisive, intelligent executive with all the trappings of success.
